Thats christmas dinner thenTRANCE wrote:OMG! So I went for a 5 mile walk today around my local woods and forests in Somerset (UK) and saw 4 wild deer grazing, who happily bounced off, fluffy white tail in view, when I got too close for them. Great stuff. (I moved out of town to live in the countryside years ago, btw)
However, later on, I had to drive into my local town from where I live to get some groceries, etc, for the weekend. While driving home, there was a huge great van in front of me. He hit a deer full on. Part of the van's bumper fell off and I had to steer my car over his fallen off bumper but the car behind me crashed into his fallen off bumper and came to a halt. I did a U-turn to find out all was OK and they were, but the huge carcass of a deer was on the road and it was gruesome viewing. The head was gone, no legs and just a steaming lump of huge deer in the road, ripped to utter shreds, blood and guts strewn across the pitch black remote dark rode.
I have absolutely no idea why the van didn't stop when it hit the deer, but what a fucked up scene I could have done without today. Oh well..
Indeed, I'm sure it was on QI or something, that if you hit a deer you can't pick it up, but if it's road kill, the person behind, after the kill, can have it. lol (you should have seen the state it was in though, ugh)Sir Niall of Essex-sire wrote:Thats christmas dinner thenTRANCE wrote:OMG!
